1) y-intercept => x = 0, => y = f(0) = 0 - 0 + 0 - 36 = -36
2) x-intercept => y = 0 => factor the function (start by dividing by x -2)
f(x) = (x-2)(x-3)(x-6) =0 => x =2, x = 3, x = 6 (these are the x-intercepts)
3) critical points:
between x = 2 and x = 3, there is a local maximum
between x =3 and x = 6 there is a local minimum
3) Shape.
The function comes growing from - infinity.
In the third quadrant the function is negative (it does not pass throuhg the second quadrant)
It enters to the fourth quadrant intercepting the y-axis at y = -36. It continues growing and intercepts the x-axis at x = 2.
It continues increasing until a maximum local positive value, starts to decrease, intercepts the x-axis at x = 3, continues decreasing, becomes negative, gets a local minimum in the fourth quadrant, starts to increase, intercepts the x-axis at x = 6, becomes positive, and continues growing.

is the answer for your question it repeats so your gonna want to put a bar notation.
Answer: Nicole has 88 erasers in all
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of erasers that Nicole has = 83
Number of erasers given to Nicole= 5
Total number of erasers Nicole has in all = 83+5= 88 erasers
Therefore Nicole has 88 erasers.
Since the dice are fair and the rolling are independent, each single outcome has probability 1/15. Every time we choose

We have
and
, because the dice are fair.
Now we use the assumption of independence to claim that

Now, we simply have to count in how many ways we can obtain every possible outcome for the sum. Consider the attached table: we can see that we can obtain:
- 2 in a unique way (1+1)
- 3 in two possible ways (1+2, 2+1)
- 4 in three possible ways
- 5 in three possible ways
- 6 in three possible ways
- 7 in two possible ways
- 8 in a unique way
This implies that the probabilities of the outcomes of
are the number of possible ways divided by 15: we can obtain 2 and 8 with probability 1/15, 3 and 7 with probability 2/15, and 4, 5 and 6 with probabilities 3/15=1/5
